I like 'em in this order...
1. Back Stabbers :)
2. Love Train
3. I Love Music
4. For The Love Of Money
Back Stabbers is an odd song with me. I honestly hated that song when I first heard it and several times after that. It's funny, but I gradually started to like it and eventually it became one of my favorites by them. (Sounds like another message subject in there somewhere).
4. "For the Love of Money" made a come back about 9 years ago after (I think it was Honda) used it in one their car commercials.
;D

Great group who also cut some worthy sides back in the 60's, but the 70's will always be their best decade...
For me...'Love Train' followed by 'Backstabbers'...

I went with Love Train. I can remember when that song was on the air. I was in high school, doung cross country running practice in late summer. Brings back the memories! :)
What ever happened to groups like The O'Jays, Stylistics, and The Spinners? Those groups did soulful music that all generations could listen to and enjoy. The lyrics and melodies were simple but clever. And the "hooks" were dynamite. 8)
These guys entertained MILLIONS of people and they didnt have to take off their clothes or sing about drugs, bitches, or 'hos either. ;)

I like "For The Love Of Money" best, followed by "I Love Music." I remember a 1989 ad for something (I forget what, may have been a car) that used the "money money money money" line from "For The Love Of Money" in it; at the time I didn't know who sang that song or what it was called; all I know is that I got a kick out of it.
